Explanation On Kundalini Chakras

We talked about the twenty -four syllables that are in Gayatri Mantra. We also discussed the origin of this mantra and who invoked it first and what that person used it for? Practically, Vishwamitra used it to become the universe himself, to have that constant connection with universal consciousness. We have right and left side of the brain. The left-brain is responsible for logic and calculations and also for chattering of the mind. The right brain on the other hand is for creativity, art, vision and foresight and so on.

When you chant gayatri mantra, there are two channels in human body. There are three but physically you can only trace two. One is called ida nadi, also know as the lunar channel. The other one is called pingala nadi, also known as the solar channel. Solar channel regulates psychic heat in the body as well as the physical heat in the body. It is when you breathe through your right nostril. When you chant Gayatri mantra, it actually boosts your right brain. It is very good for strengthening the right side of the brain.

Listen to this insightful discourse by Om Swami on the importance of understanding the science of chanting and sound to get the benefits from Gayatri Sadhana.

Gayatri Mantra Sadhana

Mantra Chanting - Science Of Sound

This kirtan was sung by Om Swami at the ashram on April 30th. It was a beautiful experience. All the villagers joined in.

Hare Krishna by Om Swami

The question asked in the discourse was - What is destiny vs. how much of it do we control karma. 

Destiny is not something that can be proven. When someone is hit with a brick in their head, they look around and question why this happened to them. On the contrary, if someone gets a million dollars, no one questions why they got it. But when we go through a tough time, that's when we question if it is destiny or what did I do in my life to deserve something like this. The truth is, anything can happen to anyone. It doesn't matter how good your karma or how sound your destiny is. One must always work in life believing in karma; destiny can only play a role if you become a worthy recipient. 

When something doesn't happen in our life, where do we look for answers? Do we look for answers in things we don't control, in which case we will end up blaming someone or something else. Or should we look for answers within? In fact, that is the whole journey of awakening, that we look within for all our answers. When we do this, chances are that we realize somewhere we are responsible for the issues we face.

"Instead of thinking of destiny or free will, begin with the assumption that you can transform your life, you can master yourself and you can write your future. Once you set your mind, give your everything to make it happen. Whatever be the outcome, the journey itself becomes every bit worthwhile. Why live any other way?" https://os.me/destiny-or-free-will-what-do-you-choose/

Is It Destiny Or Karma

Pillai Center

5 Element Meditation: Na Ma Si Va Ya

In this discourse, Om Swami answers three questions. 

The First Question - If you do good karma, can you prevent any misfortune from occurring in your life? With how much fear should one live in, or should one lead a life with faith in God.  Om Swami Says, even you have done millions of good deeds (Karma), there is no guarantee that
nothing bad will happen to you. What is the meaning of "bad"?  It is something that happened not according to your favor. But one must ask, is it truly bad? This is the difference
between pain and suffering, Sorrow is suffering but the pain is not. Say you have done a
lot of good deeds, but did not look after your health, can your good deeds prevent illness in your body? That's not possible. No one knows when and which Karmic account will be used. No one can predict who will win the lottery. But we cannot live in fear, that will make us weak.

The Second Question -  When the Soul is going towards liberation at a fast speed does it try to clear the Karmic debt of many past lives in one life? 

The Third question -  Is it true that different Yugas (Satyug, Tretayug, Dwaparyug, and Kalyug)
are happening in the different parts of the universe?

Listen to the full discourse to get deeper insights into the topics.

"How well you feel about what you do is the foundation of a meaningful existence. A life of no meaning is a life that’s gone out of control. Drifting is hardly a voyage. And that is why, in my humble opinion, every spiritual being at some point of time in his/her life steps back and questions the meaning of it all. " https://os.me/when-you-feel-in-control/"

Can Good Karma Prevent Misfortune [Hindi]

Om Swami is a Himalayan monk, adept in meditation. At the peak of his meditative practice, he was meditating for 22 hours a day. He has spent 15,000+ hours meditating & has experienced our sublime consciousness in ways that defy any scientific understanding.

Researchers from IIT in India have studied the remarkable effects of his intense practice and published the results in a 2019 research paper https://bit.ly/3axrzdv 

After coming back from Himalayas, Swami wanted to help sincere seekers in search of enlightenment. Gradually he realized that people wanted his help for various ‘how to’ in life (joy, relationship, anger, work, self-discipline, stress, etc). Through his talks, seminars, books, and videos – his purpose remains the same – to help people. 

Whether you are practicing meditation, mindfulness, or simply looking for help with self-discipline – this channel can help. Think of it as a series of self-help videos and don’t forget to
